Danny Ainge interview yesterday. Apparently he said Brad isn't leaving....haven't heard that yet. Still listening. 

If I'm Danny Ainge, and Brad was NOT leaving, I'd tell Brad to go out there and kill this rumor once and for all with clear, concise and non-ambiguous language... why hasn't that happened? #inquiringMinds

We will all know before the national media does.  And the interviews with Ainge are pointless.  I’m sure he’s going to say he’s interviewing for the IU job so he may stay or go.  Ainge doesn’t want Brad to leave, but it doesn’t matter.

This is annoying

Who pays $10m if someone big isn’t a near lock?

Could be a good thing. Could be a bad thing.

My text just said "3" literally nothing else. Initially thought it meant 3pm - then I panicked and thought maybe it means April 3?

But I texted another guy in the know and he said he said he also got a text but his said 3pm.

So something big is at 3pm.

Btw, the firing announcement was originally set (or I was told) for 3pm. But that happened around 1230 or so. So timing on this may come sooner (or later). Would like to see if Chris has heard anything.

At minimum this guy is transparent.

Ok. So it's Brad or Beilein if there actually is an announcement. Lord help me if it's Fife - MSU's season did end last night.

You guys need to relax and enjoy the best few days of basketball we get every year.

Plus a "department source" isn't going to confirm anything today. Remember Monday?

I’m pretty sure there might be some damage control going on. LOL

[ap2345]

So it’s Fife at 3 then...

[Mr. Hoosier Pride]

Listen, I need to know....should I divert my eyes from this website and get some work done or keep refreshing...I can't do both...the internal dilemma is killing me

[lillurk]

If the 3 pm thing has legs it was never going to be a presser. Maybe an announcement.

If it’s true and I had to guess it might be an agreed-upon time for either side to filter anything out to media sources off the record.

Probably had a ton of people slamming Brad Stevens 

[Feathery]

Dakich was saying an hour ago on his show that the longer it goes the better it is that it’s Stevens. That people who say it’s not Stevens are not correct. He is very much in play. But then he was saying if the announcement was a week or more out the better chance it would be Stevens. Not sure why it would need to be that long of a process.
